So let's hold on to each other for our dear lives and prepare for take off, because I'm just as nervous as you all are 😂🔥🔥🔥Have any thoughts, opinions or theories on this episode? Any burning, or non-spoiler questions you’d like to ask? Leave them down in the comments below. Let's discuss! <33

Holy hell, Poppy looks like a mean little hampster!!!🤣😂 but seriously, your art is just amazing and the story line has had me hooked since day 1 🥰 we all love you Lily!!!💜🥰💜

Christina Gibson

Poppy made such a scary face, I knew she had it in her but it was still surprising.

Tara Taylor

Also.........i noticed the teeth......anything to do with Ulaan??😜😁

Amber

I for one am totally psyched about the whole thing 🤷🏽‍♀️.

Roxyfoxyrachel

YAY!!! I cant WAIT to get home and read the newest chapter! So excited to see the new content 😍

Heather Catchpole

I just wanna say how excited I am that this was all brand new. The art in this one was so stunningly gorgeous!

Lola

Welcome to another week of marble loss syndrome (thanks, @larosamorada for coining it) with Lola where I start my own thread because ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . Early this week because I didn’t have to work today so, yay! Let’s dive in, shall we? This starts with her wondering if it cheered him up too and my heart cannot take it and it has ONLY STARTED?! JESUS. Ok but that tiger with the earrings. Poppy’s attention to detail - UNCANNY (ok, Lily’s but, you know what I mean) “THAT’S YOU”!!!! OMG MY HEART. MY HEART!! I’M DYING. THIS IS SO CUTE. SHE MADE HIM LITTLE FISHIES IN LIEU OF SEAFOOD. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. HELP. HELP. HELP. And she made him octopi (octopuses?), starfish, my heart. Wait, he’s taking a picture? For the gram? Bwahaha “This damn tiger” bwahaha. Ok but him with the chopsticks in his mouth. ALSO CUTE. If it was for your eyes only, Tora!!! C’mon!!! Ok but him saying “it’s not like I have many friends”... My heart broke there. NGL. My poor baby. ok wait wait WAIT. Is she climbing that like a spider monkey?? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) yes, yes, yes. THAT CANINE THO. We all noticed. We’re ALL INTO it. Yes. Yes. YES. “I can make something else for you some other day”? Second date? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) YESSSSSSSSSS Wait, is he looking down... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) oh. I see you, Tora. I SEE YOU. Is that a shaking fist, trembling with restraint I see? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) OK wait. what just happened. “Sit”. I can hear a collective “yes, daddy!” ;skaegjgnjwfjkgnejfgnkjwefgnjkewfgnekfgnkfgnvkfng fgknfkgvnjksfngkdfngvkfn Ok. Lost it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I thought I would be stronger, but no. Saekjlgjkesfgnjkefgnernglenglerngklrn I WILL SIT. FINE. Poppy just wanted to share something personal. Oh. OH NO. FML. *heart breaks* I’m going to cry. :( He’s embarrassed of her that he won’t even introduce her to his friends? GET YOUR PITCHFORKS. WE RIOT AT DAWN! I hope we get a small snippet of Tora kicking Julri’s butt in the future. Heck, I’ll take a whole SG of it lollllllll Wtf sort of girlfriends are those, Poppy. Who wouldn’t love a pokimon bento box. Mofos. “They can try” ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) well, I gotta add another “yes, daddy” here because WHAT. HOW CAN I NOT. YOU KNOW YOU’RE DOING IT TOO. DON’T @ ME KIDS. It’s also super cute that Tora found the tiger cute and he wants to share with his friends. He can’t help himself with Poppy. I think that shows he’s excited about her!! Maybe? Who is he texting? Quincey? That panel with the badump, but the background of the night sky and the warmth of Poppy... ugh. So beautiful! Tora’s look of “I sent it, what are you going to do about it?” HELLO. Into it. Don’t @ me kids. Poppy being a sadist. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Into it. “Girl next door” lmao yes. That’s how you win the war, baby. Let them underestimate you while you take what’s yours. Tora, of course. My heart too, because ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ This bit about Mr.Lam’s wife not being able to follow her dreams is so heartbreaking. Reminds me of my mom. She studied, had her career and us, and recently I found out that she wanted to study literature! *sigh* maybe I should learn from this. I’m getting emotional. It’s my period. It’s Tora. It’s Poppy getting her heart broken after making a cute bento box for her boyfriend and people teasing Julri about it when he should have stood up for Poppy. omg. OMG those panels of a hopeful Poppy getting then destroyed. FELT THAT IN MY SOUL. Been there, Pops. :( Don’t know how to fix that. Where is @larosamorada ??? DETERMINED POPPY is goals. Teach me your ways, Poppy. Go get Quincey on board so you can save Giant Goldfish, Mr.Lam, Quincey, etc. Everyone. POPPY TALKING TO HER DAD. I HAVE NO WORDS BECAUSE I AM ACTUALLY CRYING TEARS HERE. HELP. HELP. HELP. IS SHE LETTING GO OF HER DAD? ARE WE SERIOUS RIGHT NOW? HELLO? ANYBODY??? THE TIGER BUTTERFLY, AKA HER DAD’S SPIRIT, PASSING THE BATON TO MY BABY BOY TORA. JESUCRISTO, AYUDAME. AJIWGJNKERJGEJGJEFGNJEFNJGKNFJKGNFJKGNKFDNGKSFNDGKFDNGKDFNGJKSNFGJKNSDKGNDKSFNGVKDNFKVNDSFKVNDFKNVKDFNV Sifgjkfnjksnfjgknwerjkgnkrgn’;swrghrtegjnehrgow Jdnjvdbnfjgdfk Sfdgvbfjibjsfgnjksfngjksdfngvjkdsfngjvksdf;new;dgnskj;ghiuerhgiowehf Also, where does Tora live, man? That place looks shady af. Your wife? Damn girl. I don’t understand this, but somehow, guys with a sweatshirt are hotter? I don’t know the science behind this, but looking at the size of that torso makes me wonder. Don’t @ me, kids. Let me live my fantasy. Sorry that I don’t have anything insightful to bring to you guys as my marbles are lost, and I cannot even. Bye.

SOPHIA A

First, Poppy's business outfit is so cute! Where can I get that? 😘 Second, her ex is such an @sshole!!!

Yvonne padilla

I want to punch poppys ex in the balls

Felicity

Tora getting flustered was too good 🙏🏽, we don't deserve you LilyDusk 😭

Ann Om

Is it terrible that I want that to be Tora’s secret happy place by the sea?! *please let it be Tora’s secret happy place by the sea* 🤞

NurseAmethyst

Ahahahahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhh hollllly crap. This was good. Yuussss!!!omg, POPPY IS A DANGEROUS WOMAN. We all saw that shaking hand, Tora. She makes him shake, makes him want to grab her!!and poor Mr. LAM. LOL!!! THANK YOU. I NEEDED THIS TODAY!!!!!!

Senpai98

Can’t wait! Don’t think we’ll be the only ones taken on a wild ride.... 🐯👩😉

Boo_Berries

That’s serious face she’s laying down in 23 doe 😏 Tora would’ve lost it lol

Darla (Tora’s THOT)

Omg demanding Tora is baeee!!!! I’ll sit my ass down for him 💯!!! And what’s Tora’s ig account so I can follow and like his bento pic???? Lmao! I think that was the most adorable thing is him wanting to share a pic of his meal Shamlessly unlike douche julri.

Kristen Davis

Loved the flashback with Tora and Poppy and the tiger food! Also, any theories about the significance of the butterfly on Tora’s shoulder in the alley?

saucytuggles

Ooof... gorgeous art and hotness aside, I love this story more and more and more. Weave those webs, Lily! 😍

Camille A.D.

HIS FACE 😂 I'm insanely excited for this NEW episode! 😍😍😍😍😍 Today is such a beautiful day!

leilani simmons

I love how goofy Tora is, every encounter he has with Poppy opens him up more and more. This chapter made my heart melt. Thank you!🧡

Rayne

Tora’s future mafia queen has come for blood 😈 ...was the exact image I saw in my head when she went serious mode hehe

Annie J

I LOVE this chapter!!! Yay Mr. Lam for bringing Quincey to Giant Goldfish Publishing! Poppy had her game face on, so I can't wait for her to go back and negotiate with Quincey! While Tora watch them, distording everything and getting jealous. I think I scrolled up and down 15 times just to read over and over again that mountain climbing scene! Tora is such a sweetheart, accepting all her quirkiness and wanting to show it to Gyu (who else would he send it too??). That flashback to Julri made me so glad she caught him cheating. Tora will be good for her self confidence. They have so much to give and receive from each other. That butterfly transition between her father and Tora.... I like to think it's her father's presence watching over Tora so he can protect her as shit is about to go down if we believe the word on the street. MPL just keeps getting better and better. I can't wait to see what happens next. Lily, this step into the unknown was masterfully done. 😍

Patricia

OMG THIS EPISODE WAS THE CUTEST THING EVER!!!!!!!

Emily Basso

*Hyperventilating and twitching* As usual I need a list because GOOD LORD I’m freaking out. I’m going to post my thoughts as a reply to this …. Because it got out of hand. I’d say I’m sorry…. But let’s be honest. I’m not. This chapter was AMAZING. I can’t wait to read everyone else’s thoughts and get out of my own head for a while 😂

CoCoPuff_BB

1. TORA ALWAYS HAVE NICE SHOES ON! NO CAP! 2. POPPY is about to have an alter ego= BOBBY 3. Can they just fuck already hahahaha

Liv Ruth

Can we see more of Tora eating please? Look at those cheeks 🥺🥺

Kristen Davis

I don’t think he captioned the photo of the food, but how do you think Tora would describe this to his friends?

Natrina Lawson

You are so talented those backgrounds look amazing!

TicklemeAli

Serious Poppy face is straight up #MobWifeVibes

comicbookwaifu

Praying that there will be a future scene with Tora x Poppy and Julri 😭 I’m salty asf, I just wanna see the look on Julri’s cheating/disloyal/jerk ass face.

Amy Crumbaugh

Fuck Julri! I hate how much he has ruined for Poppy, but I’m anxious to see how Tora can rectify things for her (because you know he won’t tolerate anyone badmouthing his girl). I loved that shift in Poppy’s personality at the table - she went from sweet to fierce and then back to sweet REAL quick. She is so multifaceted as a character, which is (kind of unfortunately) refreshing in a lot of other comics. And I am obsessed with the way you used butterflies to carry the story here, Lily! What a smart and beautiful way to bridge that gap between their very different worlds. I wish I could figure out where Tora is lurking outside of at the end (in that 🤤 hoodie 👀).

Harveybirdman

I think we found the stare papa wilks was talking about! Also I really want tora to see that stare that is colder than ice and pierces through your soul. It would honestly be amazing if it was in a scene with it directed at julri and tora sees it.

Linda Brann

He was so looking at her boobs in Panel 7 🙊

princesahyuuga

Today's episode was amazing! It is great to see more of them in their worlds. And to check what happened at the dinner. I'm so curious to know if they met each other years ago! 😍 You rock, Lilly!

Remington

I want a poster of the "leave it to me" Frame! Otherwise I LOVE THIS WEBTOON, it is now my life.

Blancaliz Fernandez

Tora was dying to squish a titty since Poppy was bending over the table getting him to blush, I don’t think that man has ever blushed prior to meeting Poppy 🤣🤣🤣

Blancaliz Fernandez

Also, damn Lily gives us the longest episodes in all of the romance Webtoons. She is truly a goddess.

larosamorada

Lawdy, you were NOT kidding Lily when you said there's a LOT to unpack here. I must have re-read this episode 3 times before getting my thoughts together. First off, ya gotta love Tora having pride in the meal Poppy made for him. It's clear he doesn't give a fuck what other people think. Such a contrast to Julri's shaming of her thoughtful meal. Poppy, girl, pay close attention- a man who will love and appreciate you will be PROUD of what you do for him. And gosh, did I feel so sad for Tora after that scene- poor dude was definitely having some trauma reaction to Poppy's playful attack. His body/mind doesn't know the difference, he's so used to being on the defensive. Just broke my heart :( Poppy, girl, you ain't fooling anyone with that "cute girl next door routine"...I saw those death stares- Tora's right honey, you got a little sadist in you itching to get out. Heaven help the first person that gets between you and Tora, because they are going DOWN. My Mob Queen Poppy swinging in with that "Leave it to me." Lily...I totally cackled at the "Unapologetically Salty Old Man." That is Mr. Lam to a T. XD And Lily, girl, you are straight coming for my tears AGAIN with that Tiger butterfly sequence...the transition from Poppy talking with her dad and the butterfly finding Tora's shoulder just jabbed me right in the soul. And Tora, my man...you just couldn't stay away could you? Can't tail her 24/7 huh? Sure buddy. Hook, line, sinker- she's got your heart. Lastly, I just wanted to say, I am so damn excited about all this new territory- such a beautiful entry into the unknown. Thank you always Lily!

VeeLo

The skin that peaks when he raises his arms to get the phone up away from her!(Fanning myself!!! )😏😉

Sophia

Who's car is he driving? Isn't his car red? Why isn't he driving his red car?

Talisha

Poppy gave me chills in the most exciting ways ever this episode. And Tora was just too adorable and hilarious with that. Soooo can't wait for next week!

Kaitlin

Reading Midnight Poppy Land is like watching a movie. It is so cinematic. Everything with that butterfly was amazing. (Also, I only know that’s a tiger butterfly because of Animal Crossing lol)

Rebecca Darby

Great episode! Loving the links to everything...

Jina Vargas

I love these characters. I’m legit dreading her relationship with Quincey. I want her and Tora to run away and just start GETTING IT ON. I don’t want anyone to touch her but TORA. ToraLan 4Ever.

Kimberly Miller

I can't believe her jerk of an ex-boyfriend was ashamed of her making the food!! Smh I loved this episode!

Kali Duke

I love where the story is going

Blueberry

As soon as I read it I was like WHERE 👏🏼 MY 👏🏼TIKI 👏🏼TOURCH👏🏼 WE BURNING A BITCH TONIGHT

Becca Darnold

Tora always got the nicest kicks. I want those shoes

Agustina Abrego

I think Tora might be looking for a new apartament for Pops...or both?😍

noonanoonayay

I know I'm an hour late to the party and this comment might be buried but GOD DAMN THIS EPISODE!!🔥🔥🔥 Poppy's assertiveness, Tora's flustered face and more of their high chemistry banter which I adored, and EVEN MORE of Mr. Lam's sweet late wife's backstory! My concern is how I'm wondering how smooth this will pan out with Poppy asking Quincey for this favor or how risky the catch is for her if Quincey accepts her offer. I WAS worried at first that the two gangsters were rumoring about Tora being seen with Poppy but luckily that wasn't the case... At least not yet 😳. Also I so thought Tora was driving back to Poppy's apartment to see her again 😂 I'm curious though to see whose place he drove to! I'm SUPER excited to see more new content coming out and this is barely the beginning AGHH!!! Thank you Lilydusk-san!!!

Katie

OOOF But the sass was strong with Poppy in this one!! That look 👀👀 So confident in her knowledge that she can bring Quince on board, I LOVE it!!👏 You go, Pops, I'm here for this! I'm starting to think she may be the toughest gangster in the story, and honestly, I stan. So feminine and so tough, it's such a knockout combination. I've also been wondering since last weeks episode if her mom was involved with the Balthuman's/ a thug of some type - could that be where she gets it from? 🤔 Also, Tora's reaction to her making "him" for dinner was so gosh darn precious, plus him not giving a single care if his friends try to make fun of him for it is just - yes 👏 we love a man who loves his girl like that (boo to you Julri for not recognizing how amazing Poppy is, but oh well, make way for Tora ❤️)! Also, I have to wonder if the friend he sent the photo to was Quincey 🤔 Also, what will Tora's reaction be if she goes to see Quincey without telling him, seeing as she has Quince's phone number??? So many thoughts!! My heart was racing this whole episode because I finally had no idea what was going to happen next and I 👏 LOVED 👏 IT👏 Amazing as always Lily! 💖

LadyVondergeist

Tora being a dork gives me life! I love it so much! 😍 Also Poppy looking like a boss in that panel like the queen she is! Man I love your comic so much Lily and your art is just so gorgeously beautiful! 😭

Grace Boone

Thank you for another amazing episode Lily!! I'm loving having something to look forward to every Friday night. 🥰

Patricia

Hmmm, that building looks like it could have the apartment from the AU sketch with Tora and Poppy on the floor, she’s crying and he’s bleeding (so gorgeous). Maybe this will be like their safe house. I’m completely clueless, IDK, I just really hope that sketch was canon 😍

Nordorr

I want to know who he sent the photo to? It's probably Quincy or Gyu, but I am holding out hope that it's Alice, so he can ask, "Why haven't ya made me something like this?"

Nicolette

I have a question. Will Poppy’s ex and that thing he cheated on Poppy with see her and Tora when they’re together? That would be epic!! I wanna see their faces!!

Giselle

❤️💙❤️

Isa

I was thinking poppy looked different, and it just hit me. Her eyebrows are no longer black. Personally I like them how they are now 💖

Schkaka

Poppy is top notch! I really dont have the words... this episode was amazing.

LS1988

I love how the butterfly that is representing Poppy's father lands on Tora's shoulder. Like he is saying, I approve and I now trust you to look out for her ♥️🦋

Vikki Smirnoff

Look at Poppys wittle feeties 🥰🥺 small and cute....see what I did there? ⬆️😎

Linkan

Man I want to see an episode where Poppy braids Tora’s hair that would have been funny as hell 😂😂😂

Ez-Cheez

Oh my gosh. I DIED so cute.

PleasantPeasant

Flustered-by-Poppy-Tora is my favorite. 🥰

Julia G

I’ve a couple somewhat non-spoiler questions...can you give an estimated timeframe of how soon we’ll see Tora and Poppy start to have sexual (even a simple kiss) interactions? 🤔 Are Tora and Goliath brothers? They look very similar and it’s been bugging me. Was Tora involved in like underground fights? The scene of shirtless Tora wrapping his hands made me think of that. Probably too spoilery but can’t fault me for tryin 🤷🏽‍♀️ Could you make that post for the NSFW suggestions a pinned post? I found the URL in a comment on another post and now I can’t find it. Pinning it would make it easier to find easily but it’s okay if you don’t want to do that I just thought I’d ask.

TicklemeAli

I also really love how Mr Lam held her accountable for being late and how she presented her self. It resonated with me because I really hate when people are late. It’s disrespect of the other person’s time and sacrifice to be there for you. I loved how in this new meeting he scolded her, but he did it respectfully firm. Like how a gramdpa might scold you. Firmly but in a loving way to make you see how you messed up but you can fix it and be better.

Meghan Richardson

So many feelings! I don’t have to type them all out because our amazing Patreon group has said all the thoughts running through my head. Lily, you are truly amazing. Artwork, story, and the way you respond to all us fans. I don’t know how you juggle everything but I’m so very thankful you do. I had a rough day today mentally and emotionally. when I got the notification I was able to be whisked away to MPL and hide away there. You have created such a cozy, safe place to escape to and reading all the comments on here and seeing so much love and encouragement is such a nice reprieve from this crazy negative world. Thank you for all you do, it is so much more than just a WEBTOON. This community of loving fans is a representation of the heart and soul you put into each episode. *also, even in a hoodie with only half his face showing Tora is smoking hot! 🥵

Amy Dao

The best thing about this entire MPL experience and being on Patreon is that on the one hand, the NSFW content makes them seem so experience. But then in MPL on WEBTOON, THEY ARE SO SHY AND CUTE AND FLUSTERED!!! 😭😭😭 and really, living my best life just reading about these two 🥳🤗

MissT

Theories/Questions: ---Is Tora still hunting down the notebook (maybe he's at Gil's? I'm 99% sure it's not Poppy's place based on the balconies) ---Did Tora lie to Vincent about the getting the notebook and it having nothing? Re: alleyway chatter ---Who would Tora text that photo too??? Alice? He seems reserved about Poppy with Quincey and Ronzo. Maybe just keeping it for himself and embarrassed to say it. ---Butterfly journey (to me) was almost symbolizing a passing of the "change" baton. It helped Poppy change from her child self to a more determined woman. Now, Tora needs to transform. ***Off to bed...thanks for another thrilling chapter!!! 💜🙌💜

Jacqueline Bardales-Guarneros

I have a feeling that the guy at the end of this episode is not Tora, it could be Goliath. There I said it and it's a theory

Stramonia Mist

This episode was so ❤️ yup I don't have words. Thanks Lily for doing such a great work.

Victoria Dias

Omg Lily, just take my money, every f*ing chapter is worth the coins, nothing like other comics... you know how to put so much information in few panels!! TYSM I LOVED THE BRAIDS IDEA PPL WERE GIVING, I also would love a karaoke session, if u know what i mean... grabbing the mic huh 🤔 just an idea I had cause MPL is kinda japanesque so nothing is more japanese than karaokes in my opinion 😂

Bubblebaths.n.books

Did Tora freak out cause Poppy was touching his chest? Is he covering some old abuse with his tattoos? It felt to me like he got nervous when she got so close to him.

sandra jamet

great episode but am i the only one who wants to see the first meeting of poppy and tora? i was so looking forward to it after seeing the van. boohouuu i hope we'll see it next week! can't wait to be there. it's a great webtoon and one of my favorites :) sorry for my english, i'm a french girl :)

Olive S

I can't keep up with you, guys , but I agree with you 💯. The only thing that worries me is that I love MPL so much that unconsciously I began to think about the characters being real... Somewhere in this world... And that is not healthy at all.. 😭😭😭

Samantha Troia

I feel like Tora is 100000% not used to having his personal space invaded in such a way. Most people are terrified of him and here is Poppy full-on-attack trying to get that phone back, totally oblivious to what should be OBVIOUS boundaries in Tora's head, anyways.

Emily Neilsen

Is the author a certain blonde haired man child

Ocean

Did Poppy have the flashback about her ex and the bento and keep it to herself or did she share it with Tora?? He looked kinda concerned/maybe agitated after the flashback. It would be soo telling if Poppy started opening up to Tora about why shes insecure 💙

BlueCaty

So here comes another long ass post, because I cannot help myself. The excitement paid off people, the episode was amazing as always, altough I was barely awake and highly emotional when it came up (all nighters do that to you). So: * I never have imagined Tora the „take photos of your food”-type of guy. Now I have and it’s killing me, lol. I can just picture him sending the photo to Quincey „look, princess, THIS is how my food is supposed to look like, only you can appreciate such fine art”, right??? * Poppy cringing at the memory of how Julri dismissed her and her food – girl, sometimes it takes a douche to understand the value of a true man when it stands in front of you! All our experiences are important, I think she will much more value Tora when they finally will be together. Also the viceversa. Tora never had someone made such nice things for him so all the more reason to be proud of whatever token of affection she gives him. * Tora seeing right through her „nice girl” act – priceless! I think she yearns for someone to recognize her toughness and fierceness, she is just so much more than miss goody two-shoes everybody is trying to categorize her. * speaking of fierceness – the determined look on her face with mr. Lam - #mobwifegoals Tora would be so PROUD of her  * THE BUTTERFLY oh-my-GOD!!! Such a nice transit from past to present (although Tora in the blue car is really in the present or maybe a few days/weeks/years back?) and just imagine the soul of Poppy’s Dad hoovering over her all this time until he found Tora and then is like : there, you go take care of her for me from now on! Incredibly beautiful, amazing work, Lily! Going to properly read all your previous comments now, but I will be back with theories... 

Tathyana

he saw down her shirt right...? that’s why he was blushing right? 👀 he was looking straight down so....

Olive S

Guys!!!! Lily is just the best: she saved my message so I can repost it. I know most of my insights were already pointed but I m curious to know what do you think about Lane's pic. So here it is: OK, I think I got my shit together now so I can try and put my thoughts here, so bare with me for a little bit, cause I need your opinions on this: 1. In the panel where she shows him the "seafood": I love his wishful childlike posture. He is positively impressed with the food presentation and he is waiting ( patiently ?... 🤔) to dig in... But hey... I wonder if he really is watching the food or her generous bosom... I mean if I were a boy... I would have surely taken a peek... 🙈🤤😲🙃 2. The "climbing on the mountain" scene: we know it's exactly what happened because is poppy's recall but I really am curious to know how Tora remembered it cause... His blush must have been caused by her daring attitude or by something else... Squishing on his chest...? hmmmm 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️ 3.btw... That hint of his tattoo on his chest and that strong neck lines.... Oooof... ❤️🤤 4.his trembling fist.... I don't know about you but I think it's sooooo hot... Because I see it like he felt the sudden urge to touch her but he couldn't find the courage to do that so he barely hold it in... Cause if he would have touched her.... 😏 5.ok know.... the last SG hit me hard... I'm dead... 🙄💀 6.SIT!.....Really, my dear boy???! COME ON, how can you have that damn self-control?????!!!!!! :))))) 💡🤓🤯Oh, I know!!! : it was just out fear and despair...of losing control!!! 7.jurli....mnaaahhhh I don't give a fu... Bout him. I sure do hope Tora will have the chance to smash his face.... 8how do you eat "cute food "... Well, Tora, you begin with the ears... And then down her neck... And her shoulders.... Yeap... I trust you'll manage further down... 😉😏 9. Confident poppy is pretty bad ass. Just look at Mr lam s face when the food arrives.... :)))) 10. I see poppy is able now to openly admit she is very hungry... Hmmm I wonder who gave her back her self confidence... 🤔 Cause, about her weight, she is "just fine " as that certain someone put it.... 😉❤️ 11.that butterfly on his shoulder... Yes... I didn't know about the simbolism but I love your insights about this. The idea of her father trusting her to Tora... Is just... 😭 Oh, my heart❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭 12.Tora with sweatpants... 🤤 Tora with sweatshirt... 🤤Tora with sweatpants AND sweatshirt on... 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤯👀😳😲 13.so...he has a blue car, know.... Kinda sad he didn't care for his red one... But hey... Maybe it is a smart thing to change cars on regular basis, given his mafia involvement situation 14...i almost forgot: I think he sent his food pic to Alice... Or Gyu... Or maybe to his other phone...? Not sure... But I don't think he sent it to the drama queen 15. And guys... It is not in this ep but I wanted to tell you something for a while now : back when they were at Alice's and Lane called... Did you noticed Lane's picture in Tora's phone??? You all know that you have to have a pic in your phone gallery so you can put it as an icon on your contact phone list. So: the pic with Lane is at her office desk! A "thug" like Tora couldn't take a pic of a police officer in that situation !!!! So I think that the theory of Tora working for the police is pretty realistic... 16. Last but not least... I m curios about where did Tora go... It's not her place, obviously... And it is not Quincey's.... So.... I think it's Mr Lams... Right? I mean, Tora has to know exactly what is the deal with that man... And why was he involved with Scharch and the others...when poppy was trying to get to him... Oh, that burned my last healthy brain cells.... 😲😲😲😜

Eva Rodríguez

That dinner argue over the food and the pic was soooo cute.....too close to miss a small kiss or staring each other! And I have the feeling the mysterious author will be Quincy? ❤️😊

Deanna

Hi, new. Am I the only one who thinks Poppy should be the one to do a little violence to Julri and not Tora? Once she comes out of her shell a bit.

Deanna

I’m all for Tora being a cheerleader in that moment as well lol

Secret Weapon

I'm dying. I can't even with Tora's face in #7. Every time I see it I'm crying with laughter. Thank you for that Lilydusk!

Adventurous Snail

I was thinking that those apartments were Poppy's. It's only 5 stories tall and next to the river. Also, you can see a balcony decorated in plants, which was wonderfully illustrated. Lily is amazing with her attention to detail. I assume he is there in a different vehicle and with his face covered for one of 2 reasons. 1. He's tailing her because he's worried about her and doesn't want her to recognize him or the car. 2. He's about to break in because the notebook was not at Giant Goldfish. Either way, doesn't want to be recognized.

Adventurous Snail

Also, where is his jacket? Is Poppy hiding it under her pillow and sniffing it? I have been wondering about his reaction to her Jackfruit statement also. He seemed to be under the impression that she could smell his man meat, when he threw the phrase in while teasing her about hamsters having big balls.

Guys, it just hit me. She has and has read the notebook. She knows Quincy is the author needed for Mr. Lam’s wife’s novel. Her face turns dark like that when she says “Leave it to me” cause shes going to use that book as leverage with Tora to get Quincy to work on the project with them. Please let me know if you agree or not!!

So, I’ve never used patreon. Nor have I ever had any interest in webtoons or any web comic. This story somehow caught my attention and I am HOOKED to the point I actually spent money in the webtoons app and to subscribe to someone on Patreon for the first time in my life. You, dear creator, are amazing. Thank you for gifting us with your hard work and dedication and storytelling. 🖤

I would give my liver for a physical copy of this once it’s all said and done!

I literally paused my date night for this episode. My boyfriend at this point accepts that fridays at 9 will be interrupted for at least an hour so I can read, re-read, fan girl , and then formulate conspiracies. This episode gave me legit chills

I gotta say real quick I hope Mr balthuman is one of the people that poppy gives her glare too, I could so see them in a confrontation and end up doing a stare off, and I’m so here for it! That would be amazing!

What Tora really wanted to say was "Calm ya tits!".

I can't help thinking of the song Gangsta by Khelani when I think of Tora and Poppy. I would absolutely LOVE it if MPL was turned into an adult anime series. Just an idea..

Nani

Lily, you have done a fantastic job with this story, the art is stunning. I have contemplated signing up for other Patreons but you are my first. I even spent coins on Webtoon to fast pass the other chapters. That's how enthralled I am with your story. Keep up the great work! I am so excited to see how it unfolds.

I feel like that could be Goliath and not Tora at the end

Hi! I'm new here and I was wondering if it's normal that I don't see any chat bubble in the artwork? thank you!

Anyone else picture that reaching over the table scene, but where Poppy spills something in Tora's lap and frantically tries to clean it up only to find that he has a massive erection? Just me...? 🤣😅

Jennifer Mance

Also, new here! Just wanted to say I got hooked on MPL maybe a week ago and I was so excited to find this patreon account! I didn't even know what patreon was before. I can't remember the last time $5 made me so happy. Thank you Lilydusk!

Cenisa

So are the FP not supposed to have any dialog new to this thing and can't figure it out x.x

BegoniaRex

I just have to say, I absolutely LOVED Poppy's business meeting outfit! So cute and girly, while also looking like a total boss.

Anna Gallegos

I'm new to this and a bit confused as to where I can read the episodes? Am I just missing it somewhere?

Cristina

I love the “SIT” scene and made me reminisce about Kagome and InuYasha “osuwari!” moments and this made me chuckle and happy as can so totally picture this...

Lawren

Who did he send the picture too!!!? I think it is cute that he appreciates it. I can’t imagine Tora being an ass about it and saying something mean.

Lawren

I think the butterfly represents Poppy’s dad. I also think that since those guys were talking about a clan war that Tora might be in danger. So the butterfly landing on Tora is Poppy’s dad watching over Tora. Protecting him from possible harm. I think Tora has a new guardian angel. I just love it.

Tora’s little frown after she falls asleep, I think he is disappointed, that he doesn’t get to spend more time with her. Maybe he had visions of the two of them talking all night the way we do, with more light touches and maybe a his hand in Poppy’s hair. I like the idea of Poppy wooing Tora.
